| A suggestion for your implementation:
You should use really use WM_APP as your base message number instead of WM_USER. Microsoft makes use of WM_USER + n for many internal messages so it can cause operational issues if there is a conflict. Originally anything above WM_USER was for developers to use but Microsoft ran out of messages below that for their own use. That's why they created WM_APP. They won't use any internal message above that. Even using WM_APP as your base is not foolproof. It would be better still to use a registered Windows message.
